This is rich! DUmmie intentionally misleads regarding stem-cell story.
This is more about what the DUmmie doesn't post, rather than what he does.
What the DUmmie doesn't mention, however, is the next paragraph from the Las Vegas Sun story
You hear that? No puppies were killed as a result of this study. This DUmmie caught it:

Stem Cell Injections Help Dogs With MS
NEW YORK (AP) - In promising new research, stem cells worked remarkably well at easing symptoms of muscular dystrophy in dogs, an experiment that experts call a significant step toward treating people.
"It's a great breakthrough for all of us working on stem cells for muscular dystrophy," said researcher Johnny Huard of the University of Pittsburgh, who wasn't involved in the work.
Sharon Hesterlee, vice president of translational research at the Muscular Dystrophy Association, called the result one of the most exciting she's seen in her eight years with the organization. Her group helped pay for the work.
She stressed that it's not yet clear whether such a treatment would work in people, but said she had "cautious optimism" about it.
Two dogs that were severely disabled by the disease were able to walk faster and even jump after the treatments.

What the DUmmie doesn't mention, however, is the next paragraph from the Las Vegas Sun story
The study was published online Wednesday by the journal Nature. It used stem cells taken from the affected dogs or other dogs, rather than from embryos. For human use, the idea of using such "adult" stem cells from humans would avoid the controversial method of destroying human embryos to obtain stem cells.

This wasn't about embryonic stem cells.

A Liberal's Pledge to Disheartened Conservatives
Get ready to laugh.
November 14th, 2006
Only 780 days, Ten Hours, 40 minutes and 58 seconds until the end of the DemocratConRegress.
To My Conservative Brothers and Sisters,
I am not related to you. I don't even think we're the same species. I'm a human, you're a...uhhh...errr...whatever.
I know you are dismayed and disheartened at the results of last week's election.
And yet, we're mature enough to not scream about "stolen elections". You may want to learn that so you can live it next time around.
You're worried that the country is heading toward a very bad place you don't want it to go.
No. We know it's headed in a bad direction. Hell, I'm half tempted to let you idiots run things for the next six years so America will learn a lesson.
Your 12-year Republican Revolution has ended with so much yet to do, so many promises left unfulfilled. You are in a funk, and I understand.
Who said it's over? Supreme Lord Rove didn't send me that memo...
Well, cheer up, my friends! Do not despair. I have good news for you. I, and the millions of others who are now in charge with our Democratic Congress, have a pledge we would like to make to you, a list of promises that we offer you because we value you as our fellow Americans.
Wait. Didn't you support Nader in 2000? You think Pelosi's going to listen to you?
You deserve to know what we plan to do with our newfound power -- and, to be specific, what we will do to you and for you.
Enlighten us, oh Rotund One.
Thus, here is our Liberal's Pledge to Disheartened Conservatives:
And they're just as reliable as Clinton's '92 campaign promises!!!
Dear Conservatives and Republicans,
I, and my fellow signatories, hereby make these promises to you:
And, you know a liberal's word is like gold./sarcasm
1. We will always respect you for your conservative beliefs. We will never, ever, call you "unpatriotic" simply because you disagree with us. In fact, we encourage you to dissent and disagree with us.
No, you just encourage our murder. Note: there are bracketed numbers after the quotes in the link above. The one I intended to point out was the one numbered 49, from Sept. 12, 2001.
2. We will let you marry whomever you want, even when some of us consider your behavior to be "different" or "immoral." Who you marry is none of our business. Love and be in love -- it's a wonderful gift.
Isn't that sweet? Can I marry 2 people? How about three? Who are you to say that love can't be between 1757 people? Polygaphobe.
3. We will not spend your grandchildren's money on our personal whims or to enrich our friends. It's your checkbook, too, and we will balance it for you.
Sen. Kennedy will be deeply disappointed.
4. When we soon bring our sons and daughters home from Iraq, we will bring your sons and daughters home, too. They deserve to live. We promise never to send your kids off to war based on either a mistake or a lie.
Why don't you just give the "insurgents" a ride over here, too? Make it easier on them.
5. When we make America the last Western democracy to have universal health coverage, and all Americans are able to get help when they fall ill, we promise that you, too, will be able to see a doctor, regardless of your ability to pay.
And lord knows that we'll have a hard time paying once the "Federal Tax Independence Day" is moved to after the actual Independence Day.
And when stem cell research delivers treatments and cures for diseases that affect you and your loved ones, we'll make sure those advances are available to you and your family, too.
And when pigs sprout wings, we can all live on pork wings and no one will ever go hungry again and the Mississippi River will flow with milk and honey and no one will ever stub their toes, all thanks to government!!!!
6. Even though you have opposed environmental regulation, when we clean up our air and water, we, the Democratic majority, will let you, too, breathe the cleaner air and drink the purer water.
Oh, puh-lease.
7. Should a mass murderer ever kill 3,000 people on our soil, we will devote every single resource to tracking him down and bringing him to justice. Immediately. We will protect you.
I've got a better idea. When said mass murderer is offered to you on a silver platter, TAKE HIM, BEFORE HE CAN EXECUTE HIS PLAN, YOU FRIGGIN MORON. But, then again, it didn't really sound like you were willing to protect us earlier, now did it?
8. We will never stick our nose in your bedroom or your womb. What you do there as consenting adults is your business. We will continue to count your age from the moment you were born, not the moment you were conceived.
Show of hands, who here calculates their age from date of conception? No one. I do know of other cultures that have done that. Oh wait, that would make Mr. Moore bigoted against other cultures. For penance, he must recite the Democrat Party platform 20 times.
9. We will not take away your hunting guns. If you need an automatic weapon or a handgun to kill a bird or a deer, then you really aren't much of a hunter and you should, perhaps, pick up another sport. We will make our streets and schools as free as we can from these weapons and we will protect your children just as we would protect ours.
What part of "the right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" do you not understand?
10. When we raise the minimum wage, we will pay you -- and your employees -- that new wage, too. When women are finally paid what men make, we will pay conservative women that wage, too.
You will? I always thought what I made was paid to me by my employer? But, if you want to slide some of the money you made from the sheep over this way, I won't blame you...
11. We will respect your religious beliefs, even when you don't put those beliefs into practice. In fact, we will actively seek to promote your most radical religious beliefs ("Blessed are the poor," "Blessed are the peacemakers," "Love your enemies," "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God," and "Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me."). We will let people in other countries know that God doesn't just bless America, he blesses everyone. We will discourage religious intolerance and fanaticism -- starting with the fanaticism here at home, thus setting a good example for the rest of the world.
Oh, really? So the blathering of your sheep on DU bears no reflection on what you want?
12. We will not tolerate politicians who are corrupt and who are bought and paid for by the rich. We will go after any elected leader who puts him or herself ahead of the people. And we promise you we will go after the corrupt politicians on our side FIRST. If we fail to do this, we need you to call us on it. Simply because we are in power does not give us the right to turn our heads the other way when our party goes astray. Please perform this important duty as the loyal opposition.
Well, you ought to start with Pelosi. Then Hastings. Then Blagojevich. Then Reid. Then...
I promise all of the above to you because this is your country, too. You are every bit as American as we are. We are all in this together. We sink or swim as one. Thank you for your years of service to this country and for giving us the opportunity to see if we can make things a bit better for our 300 million fellow Americans -- and for the rest of the world.
By all means. Just know that when you f*ck this country up, we will make you pay for it. Big time.
Signed,
Michael Moore mmflint@aol.com

Giuliani forms exploratory committee
From AP/Yahoo:
He's too liberal for me. I would have liked it better if he'd ran for Senator in New York this year, but with the way Tuesday went for Republicans... Yikes.
WASHINGTON - Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani, a moderate Republican best known for his stewardship of the city after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, has taken the first step in a 2008 presidential bid, GOP officials said Monday.
The former mayor filed papers to create the Rudy Giuliani Presidential Exploratory Committee, Inc., establishing a panel that would allow him to raise money for a White House run and travel the country.
The four-page filing, obtained by The Associated Press, lists the purpose of the non-profit corporation "to conduct federal 'testing the waters' activity under the Federal Election Campaign Act for Rudy Giuliani."
The paperwork is signed by Bobby Burchfield, a partner at the DC-based law firm of McDermott Will & Emery, a firm that handles political work.

Texas Death Row Inmates Find Friends on MySpace.com
Thirty condemned Texas killers have MySpace accounts, troll for 'friends' on line
By Jim Forsyth
Monday, November 13, 2006
Thirty condemned killers on Texas death row have pages on the controversial teen website 'myspace.com' where they openly encourage young girls to communicate with them and frequently put out racist and violent messages, 1200 WOAI news reported today.
While inmates are not allowed access to the internet, the pages are created and maintained by relatives and friends, 1200 WOAI news reported. None of the pages open concedes that the person who is asking your son or daughter to 'be his friend' actually admits that the person on the page is a vicious killer waiting to die, frequently for sexual related murders.
Absolutely disgusting. This should not be allowed.
5 Republicans, 1 Democrat criticized for conceding races
No, no, no. It isn't a conservative group doing the criticizing. According to CNSNews, it's the leftist group Velvet Revolution.
Is this far leftist group trying to set up a claim that it's actually a fair, bipartisan organzation, or are they just trying to get publicity?
(CNSNews.com) - At least six candidates in the midterm elections should not have conceded last week, according to a group that monitored the elections for voting machine fraud and disenfranchisement.
Velvet Revolution, which calls itself a "network of more than 120 progressive organizations," criticized several candidates who conceded defeat before allegations of voter fraud had been fully investigated.
Among the six candidates it argued should not have conceded were five Republicans: Sens. George Allen (Va.), Conrad Burns (Mont.), Jim Talent (Mo.) and Rick Santorum (Pa.) and California secretary of state candidate Bruce McPherson.
The group also criticized Democratic Rep. Harold Ford, Jr., who conceded to Republican Robert Corker in their race for the U.S. Senate seat in Tennessee.
Is this far leftist group trying to set up a claim that it's actually a fair, bipartisan organzation, or are they just trying to get publicity?
Sen. Mel Martinez to head RNC.
From Newsmax:
I must say that I'm a bit disappointed. I was hoping for Michael Steele.
Sen. Mel Martinez, the first-term lawmaker who previously served in President Bush's Cabinet, will assume the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee, GOP officials said Monday.
Martinez, 60, will replace current chairman Ken Mehlman, who will leave the post in January at the end of his two-year term, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to avoid pre-empting a formal announcement.
I must say that I'm a bit disappointed. I was hoping for Michael Steele.
When your policies fail miserably, who are you going to blame? Diebold!!!
Yes, that evil company that stole the 2000 (forget that most of the country was still using paper ballots, a fact that only changed when Democrats whined that their voters were too stupid to use them), 2002, and 2004 elections for the BFEE is at it again. Why didn't Diebold just switch a few votes here and there in Montana and Virginia? To let the Dems take the fall for a lot of bad stuff that's going to happen...
Remember, for the moonbats, it's so much easier to make up a conspiracy theory than to admit that the policies they advocate are already proven failures.

Maybe this election was another Diebold job after all?
Consider: the GOP is officially off the hook, yet they have complete control via Lieberlouse. The Dems are "in power", but can't do anything that would require overriding a veto, and can lose the Senate any time Lieberlouse chooses.
Sounds like a remarkably good deal for the GOP, doesn't it?
Or at least for the people who pull the strings behind both Business Party fronts.
No?

Pawlenty for veep?
After the 2004 election, I started thinking about who would make a good vice-presidential candidate (yeah, I know). He would have to be someone who could help the Republicans carry a swing state. I concluded that candidate would have to be Gov. Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota. Apparently Real Clear Politics agrees. I think we could do better than McCain, though.

Chafee to leave Republican Party?
To those FReepers who questioned why I did not want Chafee in the Senate, and laughed when I said I thought Chafee might switch parties, I offer this:
Link
Link
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Two days after losing a bid for a second term, Sen. Lincoln Chafee (news, bio, voting record) said he was unsure whether he would remain a Republican.
Chafee lost to Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse in a race seen as a referendum on President Bush and the GOP. On Thursday, he was asked whether he would stick with the Republican Party or become an independent or Democrat.
"I haven't made any decisions. I just haven't even thought about where my place is," Chafee said at a news conference. When pressed on whether his comments indicated he might leave the GOP, he replied: "That's fair."
Charges to be sought against Rumsfeld in Germany
Looks like the moonbat wet dream is (somewhat) coming true...
Link.

A lawsuit in Germany will seek a criminal prosecution of the outgoing Defense Secretary and other U.S. officials for their alleged role in abuses at Abu Ghraib and Gitmo
Just days after his resignation, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is about to face more repercussions for his involvement in the troubled wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. New legal documents, to be filed next week with Germany's top prosecutor, will seek a criminal investigation and prosecution of Rumsfeld, along with Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, former CIA director George Tenet and other senior U.S. civilian and military officers, for their alleged roles in abuses committed at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison and at the U.S. detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

You so called "moderates" keep spoiling our fun
I always see a "debate" around here about what it means to be moderate, about what the definition of liberal and moderate is. Here.If you are against gay marriage, you are not a moderate, you are a bigot.If you don't believe in free healthcare for all, regardless of one's income, you are not a moderate, you are uncaring and selfish.If you support the war in Iraq ala Joe Lieberman "because it's the right thing to do", you are not a moderate, you are a chickenhawk warmonger.If you don't think Bush, Cheney, and many others should be impeached because you would rather have everyone work together like in some fucking episode of Sesame Street, you are not a moderate, you are a coward.If you think there should be no limits or checks or regulations on who can own a gun, where one can purchase a gun, what type of gun one can own, or how one can purchase a gun, you are not a moderate, you are a lunatic.If you are against stem cell research because of some superstitious religious belief, you are not a moderate, you are uncompassionate, hypocritical, and ignorant.If you are against taxing the rich because you think the market is perfect and capitalism works 100% for the benefit of everyone, you are not a moderate, you are an asshole.Finally,If you call yourself a moderate, but you voted for the GOP in this election, you are not a moderate, you are a lying freeper troll.

An open letter to "moderate" voters
Dear "moderate" voter,
The worst nightmare of those of us who actually pay attention has come true. Nancy Pelosi will be Speaker of the House. The former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan will likely be the President Pro Tempore of the Senate (so you don't know what that means- who cares?- it's your patriotic duty to be an ignorant voter).
See, some of us really have a problem with people who pay no attention to the political process until the minute they wake up on election day and decide they have a constitutional duty to cancel out the informed votes of others, so I just want to remind you of some of the warnings we gave you and what you can expect in the next two years:

- You were warned that Democrats would fight to pull troops out of Iraq. Don't blame us. You were too stupid to listen.
- You were warned that Democrats couldn't wait to start impeachment hearings against Pres. Bush. Don't blame us. You were too stupid to listen.
- You were warned that Democrats would fight for a minimum wage hike, which would drive unemployment up, putting those who had jobs on the government dole Don't blame us. You were too stupid to listen.
- You were warned that Democrats would not only divide America's citizens based on class ("Well, they have more, therefore they should pay more taxes"), but that after they fooled you with that line, you would see your own tax cuts vanish. Don't blame us. You were too stupid to listen.
- You were warned that Democrats would introduce a disastrous socialist health care system which, like all other entitlement programs, would fail at its stated goal of providing free health care for everyone, but would succeed at it's intended goal of getting more people reliant on the government, so the Democrats could scare people into voting for them ("If you vote for a Republican, we're all going to die"). Don't blame us. You were too stupid to listen.
- You were warned that in Pennsylvania you were sending an empty suit to the Senate. Don't blame us when you get tired of him. You were too stupid to listen.
- You were warned about the corruption of Sen. Menendez. Don't blame us. You were too stupid to listen.
- You were warned that if the Democrats got away with their personal attacks on Michael Steele, they'd be more inclined to attack independent African-Americans in the future. Don't blame us. You were too stupid to listen.
- Lastly, you were warned that al-Qaeda is a threat to American security that should be dealt with. Don't blame us when bin Laden sees this election as a surrender. You were too stupid to listen.
Are we bitter about losing this election? You bet.
Are we going to let it get us down about the next election? Hell no.
Are we going to win in 2008? Yes, and it won't even be close.
So what do we want from you, the ignorant voter? Do we want your vote? No. We want you to stop voting. You are too damned stupid to be trusted with the future of this Republic. Rip up your voter registration and leave the voting to those who pay attention.
Love,
Informed America
Time to vent...
Yesterday was quite a frustrating day for those of us that actually pay attention. Let's just take a few days to vent. I'm going to put up my response to "moderate" voters in a few minutes. If you have anything you want to get off your chest, do it here. Let me just state that if you're new to my blog (and let's face it-who isn't?) I will not tolerate threats of physical violence.

Falwell has decided that he just can't compete with the drug smoking hippies at the ballot box, so he'll just start a civil war. It doesn't occur that this may be a group of Christians en route to a worship service at another church...

Can a devout Conservative Christian be an American
patriot and
a loyal citizen? Consider this:
Theologically, no.
Because his
allegiance is to white, blonde haired, blue eyed Jesus.
Scripturally,
no. Because his allegiance is to the three of the Ten
Commandments that he can
remember.
Geographically, no. Because his
allegiance is to the place
where they plan to get raptured to.
Socially, no. Because his allegiance
to white Jesus forbids him to
make friends with Americans such as Gays and
Muslims.
Politically,
no. Because he must submit to Pat Robertson, who
calls for the 'godly'
fumigation of Non-Conservative Christians.
Domestically, no, because he
is instructed to turn women into 2nd class
citizens (along with every other
non-white person).
Religiously, no.
Because no other religion is
accepted by his god except Conservative
Christianity.
Intellectually, no, because he cannot accept the American
Constitution since it is not based on Biblical principles.
Philosophically, no, because the 'christian' Right does not allow
freedom of religion and expression.
Democracy and the 'christian'
Right
cannot co-exist.
Therefore after much study and Deliberation
....perhaps
we should be very suspicious of ALL CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIANS in
this country.
They obviously cannot be both good Conservative Christians and
good Americans.
Call it what you wish ...it's still the truth. If you find
yourself
intellectually in agreement with the above, perhaps you will share
this with
your friends. The more who understand this, the better it will be
for our
country.
In light of this is it possible to have a democracy
in the US?
The war is bigger than we know.
